About this item
The combination of Vivaldi and Bach is true magic. The same can be said of this spectacular arrangement of the fugue from the first movement of L’estro Armonico 11, which Bach arranged for his Organ Concerto in D Minor. Combining the best of both versions, this arrangement explores some brilliant contrapuntal writing.

Composer
Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741)
Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (4 March 1678 – 28 July 1741), nicknamed il Prete Rosso ("The Red Priest") because of his red hair, was an Italian Baroque composer, priest, and virtuoso violinist, born in Venice. Vivaldi is recognized as one of the greatest Baroque composers, and his influence during his lifetime was widespread over Europe. Vivaldi is known mainly for composing instrumental concertos, especially for the violin, as well as sacred choral works and over 40 operas. His best known work is a series of violin concertos known as The Four Seasons.
